Haliburton Dance Academy Studio Policies

Please note the following guidelines regarding all classes:

1. Students must observe the dress code outlined on our website and provided as a hard copy during week one of classes. This dress code must be fully abided by no later than 3 weeks into our season. Students not in uniform will be required to observe.

2. Any student arriving more than 15 minutes late will not be admitted to class. Please arrange for a make-up class if circumstances arise. Dancers are permitted to attend any class within their age group, as a make-up class, once it is cleared with the director/office.

3. All students are encouraged to remain in the room once class has begun. Please allow for appropriate restroom use prior to class. Very young children will be treated sensitively as the need arises. Preschool children may need a parent’s attention from time to time for various reasons, including bathroom or behavior issues. Please do not leave the waiting room when very young children are in class without informing the office or having another parent responsible during your absence. We make every effort to have all children feel safe and cared for in a loving and inspiring learning environment.

5. School age children and teens: please practice respect. Students are not to be socializing in a disruptive manner during class. Please honour your teacher and fellow students by giving full attention and co-operation. Parents will be advised if we feel any student is not welladjusted to the classroom environment for any reason.

6. If a student complains of being ill, or sustains an injury during class and cannot participate, parents will be notified if not on the premises.

7. Students with a pre-existing sickness/injury are allowed to observe class. The parents must notify the office if a student is to observe class. Every effort must be taken to attend class, even if it is only to observe.

8. Family and friends are not allowed to observe classes, with the exception of special circumstances, i.e. holiday performance, open house week, baby ballet, etc.

9. Cell phone usage is prohibited for dancers while at the studio. Dancers are to be fully present while working with their team and instructors.

10. Full refunds on class fees are offered only up to three weeks into each term.

11. NSF charges will apply for failed payments.

12. Interest will be applied monthly to all accounts not paid in full by March 15, 2022.

Dance is both educational and fun. In addition to building technique it develops social skills, discipline, and respect. Consideration and respect for fellow students, as well as teachers, is a hallmark of Haliburton Dance Academy's philosophy, cultivating a supportive environment where classes will be enjoyable for all participants.
